Stop the Bleed Training Class

In the event of an emergency, it’s important to be prepared for the worst. A bleeding injury can happen anywhere. We’ve all seen it happen too often—on the news or in everyday life.

Life-threatening bleeding can happen to people injured in serious accidents or disasters. Instead of being a witness, you can become an immediate responder because you know how to STOP THE BLEED®.

Issaquah Citizen Corps is sponsoring a Stop the Bleed training class at Blakely Hall on Jan. 18, 2024, from 6:30-8 p.m. The class is intended to encourage bystanders to become trained, equipped and empowered to help in a bleeding emergency before professional help arrives.

Instructors will teach three quick techniques to help save a life before someone bleeds out: how to use your hands to apply pressure to a wound, how to pack a wound to control bleeding, and how to correctly apply a tourniquet.

The public is invited, but attendance is limited to 20 people. If you would like to attend, please RSVP here >>
